Since its launch in 2005, our certified advisors have facilitated more than $12 billion in loans to women-owned businesses.

The program offers members:

  • Customized financial services and advice from Key4Women certified advisors
     
  • Exclusive member events and forums with industry experts to help foster professional and business development while creating lasting connections with industry leaders and professionals

With thousands of Key4Women Certified Advisors throughout Key’s footprint, we understand the unique needs of women entrepreneurs and leaders. Access to capital and mentorship continue to be two critical needs of women-owned businesses, which is why Key4Women expanded its pitch contest from Northeast Ohio to Washington State in 2022. Through the competition, nearly $70,000 in cash prizes were awarded to 20 finalists.
